(a)
To identify: Whether the object is moving in positive or negative direction for segment A to B.
(a)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object is moving in the negative direction.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.
In the graph segment A-B, the object is moving in a negative direction as the slope of the line segment is decreasing over time.
Conclusion:
The object would be moving in the negative direction.
(b)
To identify: Whether the object is speeding up or slowing down in graph for segment A to B.
(b)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object is speeding up.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.
In the segment A to B, the object is moving from a less steep position to steeper one, this suggests that the object is speeding up.
Conclusion:
The object is speeding up.
(c)
To identify: Whether the acceleration of an object is positive or negative for segment A to B.
(c)
Answer to Problem 56P
The acceleration of the object is negative.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.
During the interval of A to B, the graph is going concave downward i.e. slope is going more negative. Thus, the acceleration is negative.
Conclusion:
The acceleration of the object is negative.
(d)
To identify: Whether the object is moving in positive or negative direction for segment D to E.
(d)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object would be moving in a positive direction.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.
For the segment D to E, object’s distance increases with time then the objects moves faster.
In the graph segment D-E, the object is moving in a positive direction as the slope of the line segment is increasing.
Conclusion:
The object would be moving in a positive direction.
(e)
To identify: Whether the object is speeding up or slowing down for segment D to E.
(e)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object is speeding up.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.
For the segment D to E, object’s distance increases with time then the objects moves faster.
The object is moving on the graph from a less steep position to steeper that is slope is increasing with time.This suggests that the object is speeding up.
Conclusion:
The object is speeding up.
(f)
To identify: Whether the acceleration of an object is positive or negative in the graph segment D to E.
(f)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object will accelerate.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.For the segment D to E, object’s distance increases with time then the objects moves faster.
During the interval D to E, the graph is going concave upward i.e. slope is going more positive. Thus, the acceleration is positive.
Conclusion:
The object will accelerate.
(g)
To identify: Whether the object moving in the positive or negative direction in the graph segment C to D.
(g)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object is not moving in either direction. The object is at rest.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.
For the segment C to D, the object’s distance is constant with time then object remains stationary.
After reading the graph segment C-D, the object is not moving in either direction. Thus, the distance graph is linearly constant.
Conclusion:
The distance between duration of graph segment C-D is constant. Thus, the object will remain at rest.
(h)
To identify: Whether the object speeding up or slowing down in graph segment C to D.
(h)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object is not moving in either direction. The object is at rest.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Consider the given graph as shown below.
For the segment A to B, object is moving constantly and then distance decreases rapidly with time.
For the segment C to D, the object’s distance is constant with time then object remains stationary.
After reading the graph segment C-D, the object is not moving in either direction. Thus, the velocity of the object is zero.
Conclusion:
The velocity of the object is zero that is the object is at rest.
(i)
To identify: Whether the acceleration of the object positive or negative in the graph segment C to D.
(i)
Answer to Problem 56P
The object is not moving in either direction. So, the acceleration is zero.

The directions are shown relative to north: 0° is north, 90° is east, 180° is south, and 270° is west. Use the method of components to find (a) the distance she has to fly from Manhattan to get back to Lincoln, and (b) the direction (relative to north) she must fly to get there.

The dish is on a shelf above the point where the quarter leaves your hand and is a horizontal dis- tance of 2.1 m from this point (Fig. E3.19). If you toss the coin with a velocity of 6.4 m/s at an angle of 60° above the horizontal, the coin will land in the dish. Ignore air resistance.
